As more organizations move workloads back on-premises, they find themselves caught in a conundrum: How do they close the gap between cost control and the security of owning infrastructure, while maintaining the simplicity and speed of the public cloud?

Repatriating without a solid internal developer platform in place can be more troublesome than you might think. For one, you could risk slowing development by waiting on manual provisioning. And your developers will be frustrated as they search for workarounds. Meanwhile, platform teams will create bottlenecks by fielding requests instead of building. Without standardized processes, different teams build things differently, making systems harder to maintain — and prone to failure.

This is why your foundation matters from the very beginning. Your internal developer platform should be integrated, automated, and easy for developers to use, without creating a maintenance nightmare for the team behind it.

If your team is facing these challenges, join us at 10:30 a.m. Pacific/1:30 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, March 12, for a special online event, “Building a Self-Service Developer Platform the Thoughtful Way.

In this technical session, our hostCharles Humble, will welcome Broadcom’s Jad El-Zein to show you how VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service with VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 gives developers a seamless, self-service on-premises experience via unified APIs and cloud-native building blocks.

They’ll even show you how something as simple as a git commit can trigger a full-stack deployment of Kubernetes infrastructure, including networking and storage.
